THE LONDON JOURNALS. DAILY EXTRACTS FROM THE MORNTNG PAPERS, JUNE 13, 1826. • [THE TIMES.] Whatever effect the yell of " No Popery" may have upon the electors; in divers parts of England, certain of the candidates) we apprehend, will feel on peat inducement. to resort to it on future occasions, in,some. way or other Mr. Sugden 's name hue been wefully besmirched by his connexion, whether genuine or ftetitinus, with the'auti-Crithelic hue-and-erv,' among the gentle folks of the tepe . of Brereber. From a plain and intelligible let ter, addreseed, by Mr. Butler to Mr. Blount, both .Cathelies, it appears beyond dispute that Mr. Sugden did, no. longer ago than this time twelvemonth, dei•cribe himself to be a " decided friend to Catholic: ethancipation, but as decidedly unwilling to let his intentions in favour of that measure be generally known," lest it should deprive him of the vote of those zintiXatholie freemen who were opposed to it, - Mr. Sugden, heariug that such a letter was in circulation, got up an " explanation" of the very gross conduct imputed to him—the burden of which explanatory statement netts to be, that what passed at his interview with Mr. Butler. had been " confidential ;" anti likewise, that the letter of the latter gentleman to Mr. Blonet was of the same private character. On the first of these points Mr. Butler declares that the subject matter of the interview WAS never underetood by him As a thing forbidden to be communicated ; and, indseel, from the nature of Mr. Sugden's discourse, its entire secrecy would have destroyed its value, and defeated its weirdest object,. for it was nothing le.s than this—"l. am a. stanch friend to the Catholics. lam willing to go all lengths fur the Duke of Norfolk. I there fore hope to have the Catholic countenance and support to my pretensions a-. candidate for the . borough." What then ? Was none of all this soapery intended to anoint the ears to Which it must have proved so grateful ? Were these argliinents, we repeat, prepared by the nigenions coiusset fol' ii private consulta tion only with . Mr. Butler, find .to be withheld from judge and•jury ? Tlls • tioirY is a foolish one, and will not bear a moment's Thoughts. '.it give Mr. Sugden the full benefit of his defence--...whNl we have. already seen is utterly futile- , -what does it. atr. to? Does it contradict the allegation that he has come under ise colours? • No, it does not clear the learned candidate of being (lb:hip:mums, but it melee that, being disingenuous, lie was cunning and wary to boot. His on-n defence,' we say, fixes this charge upon him—that to ensure the countenance of the Duke of Norfolk in the year 180, he announced him eelf as a friend to the Catholic cause ; and now, in NM that to diarni the Orangemen, he stalks forth nee "No Popery" candidate ! Which did Mr. Sugden mean to betray ? Per haps both, Which of them ought now to believe him ? Neither. The whole proceeding is a fair picture of the political honesty with whi c h w i tch-words like this. are on most occueions made use 1:f by men who seek ter seats in Parliament, but us fields o f profit able enterprise. • • Popery" is at. Wet the prostitution of a fine old sentiment--it is with some of times who have employed it the tiegradeil idgual of base soil sordid hypocrisy. We trust that will not. be • returned for Shoreham. With Kilra 'regYet sod mot:titivation the liberal portion of the public that General Palmer has been thrown out for Bath...._ 74c aristocracy has fixed its. feegs on that unfortunate city ; and, mike); by some miracle the freochiao should he opened, it will ex hibit a future scene of miserableservility, not exceeded even in Scotland. A, free and independent a diligent and upright repre sentative lute thine been dieinimeil; and though Lord. Camden, in the affairof the. tellership,, put forth claims upon the people of England which we are mot anxious to disparage cur forget, we cannot' hut think that he gOes far towards cancelling the obligation, when he exerts himself to convert an independent into a close bo rough, and builds hie (study consequence on the political rola of such a man as ,Gptutral Palmer. [MORNING lIERALD.] If the Eleefoitt of the 'United Kingdom will not be to base as they haw kkik en for the last fifty year*, they have an opportunity far tittviding that the rext Parliament shall be at least a stormy one. We would have the elettole go to the poll as jurymen enter a jury box—that is, •neither to eat or to drink, or if they will be so base as to do both at the candidates expense, let them put their hands into the poOtetti of the eitudifiates es deeply et potaible, in order to thediatribution of the money of the rich among the poor. Let the electote promote this good if they will promote *Mother. Wernhould any to the electors, spare not the candidates, for if you sutra thesis to bribe you, depend upon it that, when in Pailiatneut, they will seek bribes from the Mini. eters, both in the. Government Offices, the Army, the Navy, 4wl the Church, and therelete you eesv as well get rum:khan) such ?nth i u Olen to diatrihution among those who want it as little. Wa Svdtl, however, .that the plectorkweut to the r poil ax jurymen Vnto a jury-box—that ia, to have a pride beyond that of ac- Vepting a bribe, either in money, eating, or thinking ; and, in all rates, we would have them to act their faces against thostrwho, in the last llouse of Commons, accepted place or pension, or who had any thing to' tin with the swindling achemes. We would hare all 'such candidates returned only by those who vote for what are called rotten boroughs. We hope that from one end ol the country to the other Omit; will be a stubborn spirit shown on the part of electors in favour of men professing independent prin. ciplet; and who have not yet been bought. [NfOftNING CIIRONICLE.j It would be to us a eubject of congratulation to he able to in form our 'reader', that our tool's had been permitted finally to evacuate the territory of Burma on any thing like honotirable terms; hot we confos we are among the number of those who think the late'Treate neitlwr honourable nor advantageous.—We induced the people of Pepe to,take pal t against their Govern ment, or, in other word., hoist the standard of rebellion, and now leave them to their 'fate. It is soinithinge:likwour conduct to the Genoese during the late war, and most iteeureilly the Pe guets will there the same, it not a worse, bite by trusting tniour promises.—As to extending our eommeter, nr,eecuriug a better frontier, it wilt do neither use nor the other. Wu never can have so strong a frontier ae we had previous to this disastiout. war ; the difficulty we f o und in penetrating into the country with our am ple means, and the assistance of our flotilla and shipping, which a native enemy can never pewee, is a proof that our opinion on this point is well founded,--:With respect to the extsoaion of our trade, we have for many years enjoyed the benefit of it, and there was no obstacle to the increase of it to any possible extent of which it was supiceptible._We have, now uicumbered ourselves with the eost and responsibility of Proteeting several petty States, who ne ver can, by any poseibility, have the means of Affording us any assistance in the day of need, and who Will be constantly calling upon our Government to interfere in .their behalf between them and their former Cilieltain.—lt cannot be expected that the native troops of the Continent of India will quietly consent to serve in that pestilential climate, which has already proved so fatal to their comrades; as to European troops, we suppose they are out of the question ; then bow is the military occupation to be effected ? We ought tiret to ; establish our character for probity and honour, and obtain their oonfiderwe before it will be pt udent to put arms in the halide of the natives of the country to coerce or protect it. —To Short, the Government of India has brought itself into a serious dilemma, nut of which it will be difficult for it to be extricated. There are letters from Minims of the 6th February, at which time no account had been received of the King of Ave having signed the 1111'1114i% T.ty Should opt bo surprised if be de layed it for ,ionie time, ender vaeione pretences, until the - season was too far advanced fast the renewal of military operations diniog the present year, alga then itheolutely refused his assent.

A short, time since, a person, who resides not a hundred miles from 'Brighton, and who frequently officiates in keeping bowie for persons when they can no longer keep it for themselves, was sent, ,with a'warrant, a short distance hence, to the house of a widow woman, to distrein for rent. On gaining, admittance, be made known the purport of his visit. The poor woman, notwithstanding her feeling a - little'unpleasant at the tidings, civilly desired him to sit down. .She then placed a large boiler of water on the fire, observing that she had a particular use for it 4 The bailiff. (probably atipposing some culioary,operationa ware going forward, of which he should most likely partake) Officiously assisted in blowing the' fire. The Inter in a short time became boiling, when the widow removed it to the farther part o f the room s and with a small wooden bowl, began to throw the scalding liquid about the room, crying out "Pray, Sir, take era or yourself, that 1 not ticahl you," observing at the same time, it was her way of w as hi n g h er ro om, as it rendered it great deal cleaner. The bailiff retreated from the water as she, eta' throwing it, advanced, desiring him to take care lest it fell . upon biM when,. on reaching the door, in order to avoid being scalded, he unthinkingly steppes into the street, on which the w idow immediately popped to the door, locked it, and saluting bun with no very complimentary epitheti; advi se d him to walk otr,vowing summary `veottesucelf ever ha 'Made his a pPe once in ha house again.

THE KING 1% BENNETT AND OTHERN. Thi Loon CHIEF JUSTICE said, this was a rule obtained by the' A ttorney-General against the defendants, JusCces and officers of the borough. f Fowey, iu Cornwall, calling on them to show cause why a criminal intbrmation should not be filed against them for 'Certain alleged null-practices in their several others. Their, Lordships had read the affidavits on both sides, and they were of opinion that the rule ought to be madealiSolute as"to four of the defendants, namely—Bennett, Giles, Congdon, and Jordan ; and that it should be discharged as to Ephraim Robins. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, Just VAILI.LIE V. HERRING AND OtHEItS. This was an action brought to recover a sum of 12,000/, the amount of certain bills of exchange, which had been drawn on the defendants by their agents. The ease Was tried before the Lord Chief Justice, in London, at the Sitting* after last Term, when the plaintiff had verdict ; but leave w as g i ven t o the. defendants to move,the Court to set aside the verdict,. and to enter a nonsuit. The facts of the case were put i n th e shap e of a special case, and thus brought before the Court; the chief, point to be decided was, whether the answer given by one of the defendants, when it was intimated to him that the bills were diabonoured , amounted in law to an acceptance or not. The principal facts of th e ease w ere these. A Mr. MOrnev was employed as the agent of the defendants, to tranaact business for them at . 111exico ; and a person named Exter was engaged by Morney as his sub agent, to lOok to the " exploitation" of certain mines, be longing to the defindants, situate near MeXico. Exter, finding supplies necessary for the mines, drew the bills in qtfestion, which he made payable by the defendants. Before those bills reached the defendant's h an ds, and had become due, they sold their property in the mines to the United Mexican Mining Com pany. As it might have been, they siippoted, prejndicial to their (the defendants') credit, that their agent's bills should be paid by any other persobs than thoinSelves,:they received the amount of the bills from the purchasers of the mines. Afterwards the bills were presented, dinhonouredi and noted. The' agent then desired by the plaintiff, as the bolder of the bills, to apply to one of the partners of the defenchoits' firm concerning the bills. The partner to whom Morney applied Said immediately, " what, are they not paid? they ought to be, for we have received the money." Subsequently, however, payment was refused by the defendants, and out of that refusal this action arose. The great question at issue was, whether the words above-mentioned, ut tered by one of the defendants, amounted in law to an acceptance, such as hound the defendants to pay. The Court, after hearing the arguments of Counsel, at some length, expressed its opinion, that in all law, justice, and equity, the words in question, under the circumstances of the case, amounted to an acceptance, and bound the defendant*. The rule to enter a nonsuit should therefore he (16churged.—Rule dis charged. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MAItYLEBONE.—Two Indians, mother and son, iii the cos- • t tune of their country entered the office, accompanied by the con fidential servant of Mrs. Scott and Mrs. Warner, of 129, Craw ford-street. From We Statement of the servant it appeared that Mrs. Scott and Mrs. Warner arrived in 'th:s country about three weeks since, front RoMbay, by the Royal Genive Indianian, Captain Reynolds. The female Indian, who gave her name Mary Ann Ayah, (Ayah being -the general name lins female attendants in India) was hired by those ladies to attend them during the voyage, and was to receive ten pounds as a gratuity on her ar r .- rival, if she conducted herself to their satisfaction, Insides a cer tificate of her character. Ayala, was • laft in the ship with the luggage, and did not go near the ladies until Friday last, when she called with her son; a sailor; Whom she met accidentally in this country. She demanded her character and the promised gratuity, adding that she was to sail thefollowiug day in the saint ship with her son. Mrs. Warner having missed some property from the luggage, and amongst other things a valuable writing thek, which was taken from one of the drawers of the bureau, and being informed that Ayah lett the ship the third day, but dill not call on the ladies until the eve of her. departure, strong sun -I,icions were entertained, against her, and •Mrs. Warner accused her of stealing the property, which Ayah denied. At the request of the ladies, Ayah and her ran were brought before the magis trates, to be detained until some enquiry should be made after the property. Ayah defended herself with a great deal of ingenuity, making the most of the proficiency which she acquired in the English language. She Said that that was her fifth voyage to England, and she prddtteed several certificates of Character, from those families, that she attended on the voyage homewards. Site also appealed to Mr. ( ;mild, one of . the Agents ,of the East India Company. Ilawl,mort nhsti vii,thst `'her artless manner, and the act of her going to those ladies for her character, were in her favour: If she was guilty of stealing the property, it was natural to suppose that she Wolild avoid going near Mrs. Warner's house. He did not feel nuthorimA to detain these foteigners rig mere sus picion ; for they had a right to every protection that he Could give them. Mrs. Warner here enteted the office, End requested that an officer should be sent to search the truuLa of Ayals and her son, which would be satisfactory to.her, and Mrs. Scott, u well as to Captain Reynolds, who was quite indignant that any i m p utat i on should be cast on the honesty of his crew. It was then agr ee d that the confidential servant should accompany the mother and her mini to search their trunks. All the parties attended, again accompanied by Mrs. Scott, and reported that the emelt was fruitless, and Ayah Appeared in great spirits at the result, notwithstanding which, the ladies persisted in refusing to give the promised gratuity. A long and animated dialogue in the HindOstau language followed, in which Mrs. War ner, Mrs. Scott, Ayah, and her son, each took a part. The Ma. gistrates looked on, and congratulated themselves, that the wordy war, which now and again ran very high, in. sound and gesture, was to them " dumb eloquence." • Mrs. Scott informed them that Ayeh had no claim -upon her or Mrs. Warner, for the 101., ;old referred her to Captain Reynolds, at the Jerusalem Coffee honse, Carnhill._ . • Mr.' flaw',mawt said he could not decide between the parties, and recommended Ayah to call on Captain Reynolds. Mr•s. Scott wrote the Captain's address on a slip of paper ; hut Ayah, quite indignant, refused to take it from her, and requested the Magistrate to write it, which he did. The parties then left the office. QUEEN.SQUARE.—Currma Axn MAlSllNG.—Yelterday Mary Wetherall was brought up in custody of Maybauk, the watch-house keeper, at Chelsea, charged before D. W. GILEGO)IIt, Esq. with stabbing one. Thomas Shorer, a bricklayer. It appeared from the evidence of ~ lane Wetherall, mother of the prisoner, that she, with ber daughter and the injured man, lived together at No. 2, Woriderwhat-place, back of Sloane-street, Chelsea. On Sunday morning the prisoner and Shorer went out together, and returned home about eleven o'clock ;•witness was angry, and on remonstrating with him on coming home so (being rather tipsy), he appeared vexed, and began to abuse her daughter; who was making the breakfast, when she, witness, interfered, and it was in his attempt to strike her that the prisoner, in the act of stopping him with a knife in her hand cutting some bread and butter, stuck it into his arm, and the blood flowed copiously ; she 'considered her daughter had committed the deed by ac cident. • John Testamou, employed as an assistant in the stables belong ing to Mr. Musgrave, of Sloane-street, said that about twelve o'clock on Sunday last, while he was cleaning the harness, he saw the injured man come out of the house, No: f/,' Wonderwhat-place, saying he was stabbed. A num b e r of persona soon collected round the house, and th e p r i soner wa s observed at the first floor .window laughing ; she sa id to a youn g men, who came into the court, Jed, I have done it, d--...n me if I have not," or words to that effect. Theirisoner also showed the knife at the window ; then asked where he was taken to, and on being informed to St. George's Hospital, she was about to proceed there, but got stopped on the mad, and taken into custody. Maybank, the watch-house keeper, produced a certificate from St., George's Hospital of the man's health. from which it appeared that he pact' received a punctured ' wound in the left arm; which was not unattend e d with 'danger. fie a l s o prod uce d the k nife, which was a small t a bl e one; w i th green handle.

He seems, from the beginning, to have made up his mind to the fate which awaited him. He has all along declared that he was, even to the last moment of her life, prepared to forgive his wife, had she shoWn any wish to give up with her other associates, and to live with him ; but her indifference and contempt were what he could not hear—although he was ready at the moment in which he had grasped the fatal knife to have taken her to his arms. lie said it was his intention to speak to the assembled multitude from the scaffold, confessing his crime and the justness of his sentence. On Wednesday he parted with most of his ordi nary netpinintnnces, and only wished a few particular persons ni he admitted to him. Ott being asked if lie regretted the eommia mission of the crime for which he was about to stiffer, lie replied, certainly ; what could be thought of him if he did not. He passed the night in a very calm and tranquil manner. When be saw the executioner, he said, " Come forward, don't be afraid ; you have no reason." From the Guildhall lie proceeded to the scaffold, where he bowed most respectfully to the multitude. Feeling somewhat weak, he requested the Bev. Mr. Macalister to give out a hymn he had previously eelected, Which was sung, many of thnae in the hall and on the street joining in it. The unfortunate maa . joined in the singing of the byinn with a clear and audible voice, and with apparent fervour. He then addressed the faultittide. One of the gentlemen, Idiom he particularly requested to be with observed, that he hid not spoken oldie justice of his sentence as he proposed. He was instantly aware of it, and turning round; 1 1 Raid, " My friends, I acknowledge that my sentence is jnst—that it is a righteous sentence—that it is proper I 'should die, for I have sinned against God and man, and have justly forfeited my life. Had I been in the Judges' place, as lam now on the scaf fold, I must have pronounced the very same sentence on myself." While the executioner was adjusting the fatal noose, he resigned himself to the operation with' singular calmness and compliance; and when the cap was drawn over his features, he was guided forward to the drop without evincing the smallest hesitation. He stood for a short time seemingly.engeged in prayer, before he gave the signl when the drop fell. His sufferinge were seem ingly of shor a t , duration, es he was comparatively slightly con vulsed. He was thrown off at a quarter before three o'clock,- and, after hanging fifty minutes, his body was drawn into the Guildhall.—Dundee Courier. • , . SOVEREIGN'S COURT, BELFAST. Mary Butterfield stated that she belongs to the neighbourhood of Leeds; and applied a few day, since to the Sovereign of Bel fast, and requested that that Magistrate would take her informa tion against a person of the name of Neilly Ill'Avoy, who l o d ge d in the same house witk Mary Butterfield, in Hill-street, Bel fast. The charge Pliade. by Butterfield on this occasion was alarm ing enough, it being no less than that of an assault, which she alleged was committed in a very violent manner upon her by M'Avny early on the morning of the 27th of May, at her lodg ings, in the house of a Mrs. Conway.—The Sovereign, on her ;detonation, granted a warrant, and M'Avoy was comm itt e d , to Bridewell, whence he was brought up the following morning. On• examination, ,it turned out that Butterfield had left her, htfaband and three children in England, ac companied by a man of the name of Lacey, and took lodgings for herself and Lacey as man and wife, having with her-her fourth child. Lacey went off to the country to seek employment, and Butterfield swore that in Lacey's absence the offence complained of had been committed. It appeared, however, in the course of the examination, that this very profligate woman, who thus came forward to swear away a man's life, had actually invited the pri soner Itl'Avoy. The state of the lodging-house, as it was described in the course of this extraordinary proceeding, gives a pretty correct notion of the delicacy of all parties concerned. This decided the question, and here the matter might perhaps have ended, if it had not come to the ears of one Sovereign,, that two other in th i e te b h od u y pn ;and worked so sovereigns : had been resorted to as the means of preventing any legal steps from being taken. Mr. Lacey, the osten sible husband of the injured fair one, having heard of the affair, repaired to Belfast, but instead of running the offender through he n t h e propo sedfears u t f e terms of M'Avoy, accommodation, ntutodaetxiotona, condition him the two sovereigns in question, on the express condition th at Mary Butterfield would - not prosecute. The Sovereign - of Belfast said that although there were two to one against him on this occasion, yet he, though alone, stood stronger thin the two others. He was for the fair end just administration of the laws, whereas, the two other sovereigns we re used for no other purpose t h an to compromise a capit a l f e l ons ,. This ought not to be allowed; the prisoner was charged by the prosecutrix with having committee! a capital offence, an d i f there appeared grounds sufficient to commit him to g ao l, he ear. tainly should go in order to abide a trial for -his life; if, on the other hand, it-appeared that the prosecution mot a false prosecu tion, got up for the pnrposeof extortin g money, in that oast he would discharge NliAvoy, and commit the woman Butterfield for perjury. On taking view of the ev id ence and all the vireum stainuee''s of t hi s singular case, he Was clearly of opinion that Mary Dutterfield lutd brought forward this false ch in order. to extort money from the prisoner. There waft no a ct e e dievidence to wa rrant a committal, and he therefore discharged AP/W I -he would commit Mary Butterfield for a 'which )"t tiered of the most atrocious nature. . Thus Cm, Mai upon Mary Butterfield, she wa s enonoirre(i the taßbrlaid Bridewell rut?, night, and tte nett day v as sent ofd;guarded by 'd e h etc mint 'of the police, to Carrickferps gaol, in order to take her trial at the next Ass u re.

On Friday evening last a warrant was again received at Nottingham for the apprehension of William Gilbert.. He was from home at the time of its arrival, and was observed.abortly afterwards by two gentlemen connected with the Police (who were unacquainted with the receipt of the warrant) to be driving down the pavement, and he actually passed the oflierr who had the warrant in High-street. On his reaching home he immediately absconded by some private door, the officers being then in the yard. A reward of 50/. is offered for his apprehen sion.
